Demi Lovato recently posed nude a makeup-free for Vanity Fair, and declined to be retouched. She talked about the decision as follows, as reprinted by Billboard:
"I thought there was something incredible about the idea of no makeup whatsoever, no clothes and no retouching. I would have never thought that I would have ever got to a place in my life where I would feel comfortable doing that. It's empowering me and it shows other women that you can get to a place where you can overcome the obstacles of body image issues and you can feel comfortable and confident in your skin. I basically went from hating every single inch of my body to working on myself and trying to figure out ways to love myself and love the skin that I'm in. I learned after working very hard on my spirituality and my soul and my body, I learned that you can get to a place where you love the skin that you're in and I'm excited to share that with the world.
If there's one thing I've learned in the past day, it's that life is too short. I'm about to launch an album that finally represents who I truly am. How do I embrace this new chapter in my life? How do I really walk the walk? What does it mean to be confident? It means letting go, being authentic, saying I don't give a fuck and this is who I am. I want to show the side of me that's real, that's liberated, that's free. What if we do a photo shoot where it's totally raw? Super-sexy, but no makeup, no fancy lighting, no retouching, and no clothing. Let's do it here, let's do it now."
